I agree. MathJax renders this both pointless and outdated. All my recent articles use MathJax and I wouldn't dream of going back to graphics for equation render

- sillysaurus2 13y agoDon't be mean. Calling someone's work "pointless and outdated" when they were looking forward to featuring it on HN is just brutal.
- lutusp 13y ago> Calling someone's work "pointless and outdated" when they were looking forward to featuring it on HN is just brutal. Yes, like reality. Maybe the OP will use his natural gifts to think of a way to answer brutality with creativity. That will prepare him for a more direct experience of reality, the kind where people pay you for your work, not because they're compelled to do so, but because they have no choice -- they want what you have, and you deserve to be compensated.

- corey 13y agoThis isn't pointless, as it allows you to easily post latex equations on any site that allows images.
- lutusp 13y agoYes, true, but isn't this project meant to populate a Website's pages with equations? There are any number of easy ways to create equation images solely for export to an image site, example http://arachnoid.com/latex http://arachnoid.com/latex . But populating Web pages for display is a different issue, and the fact that modern browsers allow zooming in and out, essentially ruins the appearance of graphic equations.
